When it comes to kinky sex, my partner and I often like to try something a little different, but what I want to try is asphyxiation. I'd like to gently hold my hand to her neck and squeeze just as she is about to climax... is this a normal thing to want to try and how do I do it so that it remains a safe practice?

Wow! What a question. You really do need to do some research on this because the last thing you want to do is cause injury or death to your partner, as I am sure you don't. First up let me share with you some information I found in regards to erotic asphyxiation. As you must be aware asphyxiation can lead to death, however I found that it is also used non-fatally in martial arts, combat sports, BDSM and during sex as erotic asphyxia.

Asphyxiophilia, breath contol play or scarfing is really a potential lethal practice of intentionally reducing the amount of oxygen to the brain during sexual stimulation. This practice is done in order to heighten the received pleasure from an orgasm or orgasms. Before you decide to go ahead with this practice, please read up on it because it is extremely dangerous and it is one that results in many accidental deaths each year.

Personally, I know I stop anyone who tries to do that to me when I am enjoying my sexual experience, in fact it turns me off more than anything. It's a scare factor that I never ever want to even contimplate trying. But if you do decide to do it, then please read up before you try. I am not sure that there is a truly safe way to practice this because it has too many risks involved. Sorry I can't help you further... Night Angel.
